Blackpink's Rosé is now the holder of two Guinness World Records.

The music video for her solo song “On the Ground” has become the most played within 24 hours among all K-pop soloists after being viewed 41.6 million times. It beat the previous record set eight years ago by Psy, whose music video for “Gangnam Style” was watched 36 million times in 24 hours.

Rosé is also the only artist to reach the top spot of Billboard’s global chart as both a solo artist and part of a group. “On The Ground” reached number one as well as Blackpink's “Lovesick Girls,” released in October.

“Congratulations to Rosé on her incredible achievement — who knows, this may just be the start of her record-breaking solo career!” said Guinness World Records on its website Friday.
